The room was clean and people and staff were very courteous. What I didn't like were there were no prices on separate items in the "Market" and when I bought a raspberry square it came to $10.60. We wanted two. There is NO way they are worth that much.! And they attendee couldn't find the price so it makes me wonder if we were charged correctly

Room was fine. I’d stayed before and the breakfast changed for the worse. No more omelet bar. No more gluten free pancakes. No more waiters or menu. Only garbage buffet. Had to find other options for breakfast and none were close by.

The hotel isn’t very honest about their prices and whatnot , was told parking would be included in our trip, however that was an additional $118 , they knew parking was free on the street. They are very slick and that’s not using the honesty principle… as well as there was a roach in our room .. we do have pictures , bathtub had scum residue and was dark and not bright white like a clean hotel is normally… for over $800 bucks for 2 days , we don’t recommend this hotel unfortunately
A whole roach
